Rockbox also has CoverFlow (good thing it is only a plugin thing as I personally hate it)

This is a good idea, BUT! Does the N900 have enough memory to handle it?
This thing stutters and freezes just scrolling through my books (TXT's/PDF's) and worse when scrolling through the music folder.

Actually, Rockbox runs on targets with far less resources than the n900, so that is not the problem.
The real issue is that Rockbox was designed to run all by itself (it is also the OS on normal mp3 players), and had to be tweaked to run as an app. While Thomas (kugel) did a great job porting Rockbox to run as an app (GSoC project last year), there's probably room for improvement

I have implemented a coverflow view for my QML rewrite of cuteTube, complete with transitions when switching between listview and coverflow, and I can say that scrolling performance is very nice. I'm going to prettify it to make it look closer to the N8 version. Here's a couple of screenshots of the current state:
